" Master of Vienna, and of the greatest part of the Austrian States; you might have retained your conquest.

The generosity of your Majesty did not permit you to doubt the sincerity of the Cabinefof Vienna. " And, nevertheless, Sire, Austria hastening to violate the word she had given 'at Erfurt, caused the cry of war to be resounded against her benefaCtor,' and tears from their peaceful hearths every class of her subjects, sad vie aims of foreign and corrupting gold. She allies herself who the enemy of the . Continent, and does not blush to seduce secretly the rebels of Spain, whom fanaticism misleads, and whose Juntas she deceives by fallacious promises ; she inflames throughout her dominions the imagi nation of an ignorant and credulous multitude, by ridiculous narratives and absurd libels; she refuses the mediation of the gre a t an d p ower f u l Ally of your Majesty; rejecis the double guarantee of the inte. grity of her territory offered by France and Russia; she leaves unpunished the insult .offered to one of your Consuls, the arrest of some of your Italian subjeets, the astiassitiatien of two of your Majesty's Couriers, and the violence done' to their dispatches ; she negotiates and etfetts the stne(allianceof Tur key with England; and obliges you to suspend the execution of your formidable designs against the au thor of all the ills of Europe. - With w hat astonish meta will posterity be stricken when they shall learn that in the course of cunduel so disloyal, your.Ms jesty, in yoUr relations towards Austria, had made no demand, raised no pretensions, preferred no corn- . plaint, and manifested, in an interview worthy of ad miration, dispositions so pacific„ anti sentiments so magnanimous !.

It - is supposed that Prince Prosorousky has sent two ()dicers to Constantinople with the ultimatum, representing the deetralive coniequeuces with which the refusal of the above articles would be attended for the Porte, and that the Russians did not choose to sutler the Commissioners to depart until the above two Otlicers should returned.
